I just finished
this guy recently. He is a special order Uncle Sam.
Uncle Sam is high up there on the Folk Art collectors list!
I had fun making him. He is very similar to a piece I did in 2011. Round body, long stick like legs.
His hat is made from paper. I painted the wide blue stripe and red stripes onto the hat.
He proudly carries his grand ole flag!
Just wanted to share him with you. I feel like I’ve been bit by the Creativity Bug and I have LOTS of ideas brewing for new pieces to come.
I am working on some more mermaids, hope to have them finished soon.
I am also working on a special order for my friend Ruby Jean. She’s been a bit MIA lately, but will be posting on Monday to explain where she’s been. Can’t wait for that:)
Thank you so much for stopping by, see you soon!
OMG, he's gorgeous! I really love him!

ReplyDeleteMichelle, he is adorable. I may just have to add another Uncle Sam to my group, but do hope you'll create a lady Liberty. ;-)
